Comedy Revolution Tour, May 2008.
9 comedians (3 International comedians, 6 of SA’s cutting edge) 13 Towns, 5 Cities, 23 shows.
” Geographically South Africa’s largest ever stand-up tour”
The tour billed as ” South Africa’s largest stand up comedy tour” is running from the Cape to KZN up to Gauteng, down to the Freestate and back to Cape Town this May. What makes this more than a “national” tour is the promoters ( Martin Evans & Glen Bo) are pooling their contacts, expertise and talents and taking the show to towns – most performers don’t consider. With three International and six local performers, the tour is truly on a mammoth scale for the SA scene.
Starting in the Eastern Cape touring up the coast through: Knysna, Plettenberg Bay, Port Elizabeth, East London, Grahamstown, to Coffee Bay. The first leg of the tour is promoted by Martin Evans, A Cape Town based International comedian who runs various comedy club evenings around the City)
The tour then continues up the coast to KZN where Glen Bo promotes the shows through: Margate, Amanzimtoti, Ballito, Durban, Waterkloof and Howick. Glen (a KZN based International comedian and recent nominee in the KZN Arts Awards as ‘best comedian’ runs comedy shows and clubs in the region).
They are joined by Martin Davis from the U.K (a stand-up veteran and legend abroad) with the cream of the crop from around RSA as well as Glen Bo and Martin Evans as host and headliners on all the bills.
Both these proudly South African comedians now based in different parts of RSA where the only two SA stand-ups to ever, live, work and tour the harsh U.K circuit for over 5 years. Now they bring their passion home for audiences, both small town and City alike.
The tour runs from the 14th May through to 7th June, 2008.
